Transform Coordinates
Remarks
Derived at 35 points of the German GPS Network DREF. From 2001 replaces Pulkovo 1942(83) to ETRS89 (1) (code 1674) within Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and Sachsen-Anhalt. From 2009 replaces tfm 1674 in all other states of former East Germany.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert Pulkovo 1942(83) to ETRS89 coordinates?
Use the coordinate transformation tool above to convert Pulkovo 1942(83) (EPSG:4178) to ETRS89 (EPSG:4258). Enter your source coordinates and click Transform. This uses the Position Vector transformation (geog2D domain) method with 0.1m accuracy.
How do I transform Pulkovo 1942(83) to ETRS89 using Proj4js?
Use proj4.defs to define both EPSG:4178 and EPSG:4258, then call proj4(source, target, [x, y]) to convert coordinates programmatically.
What is the accuracy of the Pulkovo 1942(83) to ETRS89 transformation?
This transformation (EPSG:1775) has an accuracy of 0.1m using the Position Vector transformation (geog2D domain) method. Area of use: Germany - East Germany all states.
